The StarWars portfolio by Ralph McQuarrie

McQuarrie explains this painting as a necessary compilation of elements - the ships and the big hangar in the Death Star. Casual figures are present merely to establish scale.

McQuarrie notes that this painting elaborates on a design which is basically John Barry's. Barry made additional changes before the set took on its final form.
